    Gravity Rush is one of the most impressive titles to land on the Vita to date. It's rare to see a project with such lofty ambitions executed so well. The bold new mechanics are complemented by an engaging story, striking visuals and atmospheric soundtrack. If you were looking for an excuse to purchase the Sony handheld, look no further than this must-have gem.

    Perfectly balances free-roaming exploration, focused story missions and RPG-style leveling, with sublime handheld controls in Vita's first killer app. [May 2012, p.112]

    Swiping, tilting and touching your way through this gorgeous world (the story scenes in particular showcase physical awareness and interactivity) is pleasurable and deep in a way that will easily draw you away from your main home console(s).

    If you like Japanese fairy tales combined with a unique twist around gravity manipulation that's the game you should buy – finally also available outside of Japan!

    A beautiful art style and an interesting take on gravity. Though the world and the lead character aren't very interesting.

    Finally PlayStation Vita has a great (but not flawless) game, tailored to its features, with great gameplay and gorgeous visuals.

    The gravity-shifting gameplay offered might be complete enough for game-starved Vita owners on the hunt for something to do with their device. But do manage your expectations, lest you be disappointed by how hollow Gravity Rush is underneath its breathtaking shell. This is a game that does one thing very well. If you need more than that, then Gravity Rush isn't for you.

So far this is the best game available for the vita. It is alot of fun and it is pack with action. I never played a game like this. Its a game and a comic book. The comic scene in this game is great. Very good graphics for a handheld. I like the cartoonish graphics. It isnt as great as ps3 graphics but it still a very good design game. There is so much to do on this game. A lot of side missions in this game. One of vita best. #handheld game of the year… Expand

    Tenia mucho tiempo de no jugar a un juego tan original, me gusto bastante, tanto el arte como la historia en este juego son sobresalientes. LoTenia mucho tiempo de no jugar a un juego tan original, me gusto bastante, tanto el arte como la historia en este juego son sobresalientes. Lo único que le veo malo al juego son algunas misiones secundarias que no me parecieron tan atractivas como el resto del juego. Otro punto positivo es el combate que es a mi parecer es de lo mas original por sus mecánicas de juego como las de gravedad y poderes que le dan mucha variedad a los enfrentamientos.… Expand
